Great video lesson. I just started using a capo (I've only used it in the past on a few jazz songs I wrote and a couple covers that I don't really play much any more) but I it's had a great effect on 2 of my newer songs. These tips are super helpful. I'm excited about exploring lots more now. Thank you!

Good content and I like your sound and teaching. In Germany they called the capo Talentbremse. Talent break.

Hi Simon ... watched this video after your video on 11/8/2024 gave me the capo bug. This FREE eBook was an extra and useful bonus .... thank-you so much!! I think it would be appreciated by viewers if you added this FREE eBook to your recent video?

[@acousticguitarlessons]

@philjames1019, thanks and glad you like the video and eBook. I will add the link for the eBook to the description of the video :)

[@billfraser4422]

great video , could you do a video explaining the 1 ,5, 4, etc on the cords??

[@acousticguitarlessons]

@billfraser4422, glad you liked the video :) Do you mean to do a video on how to get different 1, 4, 5 progressions with the capo in various positions on the fretboard? For example, options for the capo to play a 1, 4, 5 in the key of G.

[@billfraser4422]

I’m relatively new to guitar so when you say 1 54 etc in the key of G I don’t fully understand , I know g , c add9 not sure what other cords are in G I think you said e7 ? Hope this make sense ?

[@Joe-m6p6b]

@@billfraser4422 Have a look to the circle of fifth...

[@billfraser4422]

Yes that’s correct 🎸👍

[@daviddavidson3684]

I like the looks of the capo your using, what is it?

[@acousticguitarlessons]

@daviddavidson3684, it's a Thalia Capo. Hands down best capo I have ever had, and I have had many over the years :)

[@daviddavidson3684]

@@acousticguitarlessons Thank you!!!

Glen Campbell was one of the first people to use and enhance the guitar . Especially when he was a session musician with the wrecking crew during the sixties and you can hear him on strangers in the night using the capo.

[@acousticguitarlessons]

@alanattfield7174, yes a great player he was. i need to check him out a bit more, thanks for the suggestion :)

[@juditheverist4723]

There is a reason why it was also created ,those whose its chaeting is their own problem

[@acousticguitarlessons]

@juditheverist4723, I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Are you saying using a capo is cheating?

[@CorbanFeehan]
